This appliance must be properly installed and located
in accordance with these instructions before it is used.
Do not allow children to climb, stand or hang on the
shelves or full-extension drawers in the appliance.
They could damage the appliance and seriously injure
themselves.
Before replacing a burned-out light bulb, the
appliance should be unplugged in order to avoid
contact with a live wire filament. (A burned out light
bulb may break when being replaced.)

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION
To reduce the risk of injury when using your appliance, follow these basic
safety precautions.
Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water
when they are cold. Glass shelves and covers may
break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or
impact, such as bumping or dropping. Tempered glass is
designed to shatter into many small pieces if it breaks.
Keep fingers out of the “pinch point” areas; clearances
between the doors and between the doors and cabinet
are necessarily small. Be careful closing doors when
children are in the area.
INSTALLATION
WARNING
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from appliance. Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.

CONNECTING ELECTRICITY
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard.
Plug into a grounded 3-prong outlet.
Do not remove the ground prong.
Do not use an adapter.
Do not use an extension cord with this appliance.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, fire, or electrical shock.
Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord.
For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded.
The power cord of this appliance is equipped with
a 3-prong (grounding) plug which mates with a
standard 3-prong (grounding) wall outlet to minimize
the possibility of electric shock hazard from this
appliance.
Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a
qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is
properly grounded.
If you have only a standard 2-prong wall outlet, it is
your personal responsibility and obligation to have
it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall
outlet.
NOTE: GFI (ground fault interrupter) is not
recommended.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own
individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating
that matches the rating plate.
This provides the best performance and also prevents
overloading house wiring circuits which could cause
a fire hazard from overheated wires.
Never unplug your appliance by pulling on the power
cord. Always grip plug firmly and pull straight out
from the outlet.
Repair or replace immediately all power cords that
have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not
use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage
along its length or at either end.
When moving the appliance away from the wall, be
careful not to roll over or damage the power cord.
